Good news. My three book offer from Meadowside.

I have just secured a three book offer from Meadowside Books, award winning publishers of picture books, who are now building their older fiction list, which is also winning awards. The first book in my linked cycle of three novels set on Hayling Island may come out as early as October 2010. Exciting times and lots of work ahead. Watch this space!

Thanks eveyone for your comments and Candy for suggesting a bouncy castle. What a (sort of) wonderful idea?! On a more writerly note, perhaps I could have a slot at the next conference championing contemporary gritty Y.A. fiction, which I believe is coming back into fashion.

Fantastic news. Just had a mooch around Meadowside's website and they look like a great bunch. And the first one out so soon - wonderful!

Hi Sue, That was the second book I was working on at the Retreat. haven't started the third one yet. Gulp! But know the outline and the main character.

This is fantastic news, Miriam - congratulations! Did we hear some of your first book at the writers' retreat? Powerful storytelling - I hope so!
